How do I add 'Create New Text File' to context menu on Mac?

I searched online but couldn't find the solution! So, I'm posting here hoping someone may have an answer. You know how convenient it is to create a new Text file straight from the context menu on Mac, just like in Windows. This is what I'm trying to achieve. I need to work with Text files regularly and don't want to opening an app for this. If you know how to right-click to create a Text file on Mac, please share! Thx!

There's no built-in feature for creating Text files from the context menu on Mac. If you want to right-click on empty space to create a new Text file on Mac, you need a context menu enhancer.

Try iBoysoft MagicMenu! This tool can add a function called "New File" to your context menu, allowing you to create files of various formats, including .txt, .rtf, .doc, .xls, .plist, .py, and more with right-clicking.

Besides, you can also add "Create New Text File" to the Services folder using Automator. This will enable you to create a new Text file in Finder by opening Service > Create New Text File from the top-left menu bar.
